July 28, 2007 - "Rome-ancing the Mouse Cruisers" -11 days! Part 2

[Andrew DEREK UK]

Come on, Andrew -- back to work! Your holiday begins soon enough without rushing it through your last afternoon at work . . .

He he, took an hour off to book in flights on line! its called something I used to have a long long time ago, they used to call it a lunch break!

 

[Andrew DEREK UK]

Hello all,

This is my first post on the infamous DIS-Boards.

Our cruise is fast approaching and the anticipation level rising by the moment…

Have we remembered to pack everything, will the flight be delayed, will the weather be good, etc. etc. etc…

My DW is afraid of flying and we are about to cross an ocean in the air. While I don’t have any particular concerns for the air travel I do respect that this is a MONUMENTAL undertaking for her. As an unabashed Disney-addict the only thing that could have compelled her to travel to the ends of the earth and fly over an ocean is a chance to visit with a mouse in red pants!

No dear I’m still not getting red-pants with GOLD buttons or, doing anything in those puffy white gloves!!!

You know time is running out and all the planning and preparation will soon be over. Trust me it had better be OVER SOON!

I know there’s been a lot of discussion and sharing of information here THANK YOU all. I’m looking forward to meeting, greeting and sharing this adventure with all of you.

I have the TEE-Shirt and suppose I must wear it.

Regards,

Russ

WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME

BRITISH AIRWAYS ON LINE CHECK IN


For thoose traveling with BA, your checking starts on line 24 hours before the 'closing' of your flight the next day, IE not the flight time, but 25 hours before the flight .

Now their website was slow today, not like DCL and Palo's it was a couple of minutes behind, but after that it was an easy process,

 

[Disneynutinlondon]

Most everywhere looks bad at the moment. Liverpool Street station concourse was closed at lunchtime, most of Acton High Street was closed, the dealing room in my bank was closed (it's in the basement for security reasons) and all flooded due to the rain !!!!

Sorry guys have to do this,

the song of the day!

Barcelona Lyrics
Artist(Band):Queen



Barcelona Barcelona
Barcelona Barcelona
Viva

I had this perfect dream
-Un sueño me envolvió
This dream was me and you
-Tal vez estás aquí
I want all the world to see
-Un instinto me guiaba
A miracle sensation
My guide and inspiration
Now my dream is slowly coming true

The wind is a gentle breeze
-Él me hablo de ti
The bells are ringing out
-El canto vuela
They're calling us together
Guiding us forever
Wish my dream would never go away

Barcelona - It was the first time that we met
Barcelona - How can I forget
The moment that you stepped into the room you took my breath away
Barcelona - La música vibró
Barcelona - Y ella nos unió
And if God willing we will meet again someday

Let the songs begin
-Déjalo nacer
Let the music play
-Ahhhhhhhh...
Make the voices sing
-Nace un gran amor
Start the celebration
-Ven a mí
And cry
-Grita
Come alive
-Vive
And shake the foundations from the skies
Ah,Ah,Shaking all our lives

Barcelona - Such a beautiful horizon
Barcelona - Like a jewel in the sun
Por ti seré gaviota de tu bella mar
Barcelona - Suenan las campanas
Barcelona - Abre tus puertas al mundo
If God is willing
-If God is willing
If God is willing
Friends until the end
Viva -

Barcelona

Most everywhere looks bad at the moment. Liverpool Street station concourse was closed at lunchtime, most of Acton High Street was closed, the dealing room in my bank was closed (it's in the basement for security reasons) and all flooded due to the rain !!!!

Many places closed and I saw water coming up like fountains from the drains at lunchtime.

 

[Andrew DEREK UK]

OK I have to go back off again for my dinner

It's ridiculous really, this time last year was the hottest day ever recorded in the UK and now we've got floods. I'm not sure about global warming but something strange is going on.

[Andrew DEREK UK]
